It's been a long week, but my "week-ends" are finally here. Hoohoo. How is everyone doing? Let's see... in this week's episode Soi Fon gets her pretty hiney kicked all over the place. That's what the preview seems to indicate anyway until the good-guy hax is brought in for the victory over the evil-bad guy that may not make much sense. Any Ichigo-fans in the house? Wouldn't it be awesome if Yoruichi is utilized as the hax that pushes Soi Fon to victory? You know like Yoruichi promises SoiFon to take her out for ice cream if she manages to win. *visualizes every image submission about Yoruichi x SoiFon from Soi Fon's perspective.*

Yum!

Enjoy the episode and the subsequent discussion.

Lol you surely like to make people laugh
I already can see Yoruichi cheering on the roof top
Poor arrancar... he really stands no chances then... Nothing can beat an over excited Soi Fon

Just saw the episode... was it just me or in the begining animators decided to make fun out of Soi Fon... The imagination of Ggio Vega about how she would poke him was funny enough but when I saw her with wide open mouth and silly face when Ggio appeared behind her, I just couldn't hold it and burst out laughing... It must be the first time I see her like this

It looked like their fight is pretty even since both were getting upper hand one after another and Soi Fon was analyzing him all this time... haven't seen preview yet though, but I think those analyzes won't be wasted, but who knows

And lol Omaeda managed to finally do something!

P.S. I wonder how can Soi Fon still move after knocking so many buildings...

EDIT: Just saw preview and omake... Yep... Byakuya and Rukia make an aweasome family

Wow....what a change of quality. This weeks episode was like so bad......the fight is seriously being stalled. It's what I meant(whoever defamed me). There was so much face shots of Omaeda....not even funny. I don't see why Soi-fon can just fight like Byakuya who doesn't toy with his opponents and just goes for the overkill. It's obvious she's holding back and is gonna do her 2 hit KO sometime next episode or the episode after that if they decide to stall even more.

It's pretty sad how Omaeda is telling the arrancar about how lowly he is and etc when all those characteristics all apply to him. Not good looking, is a slob, and acts like a rich brat.

Hopefully next weeks episode will be better though in the preview we only see Soi-Fon and Omaeda.

And did anyone catch what Byakuya? He said Rukias sword is an ice type? I thought it was a snow type.

lol at all the complainers
how anyone can say this weeks animation was bad, has not seen last week
and how anyone can expect another nice animator so soon, is beyond me
(Did you really think they would give one of the best animators to an episode that had Omaeda fighting in it?)
Also Soi Fon not outright killing Ggio also happened in the manga, sortof.. *shrugs*

I was very disappointed with this episode. From the animation to the overall pace of the episode. There was nearly zero progression in the episode because the two transforming. I think what really pisses me off the most is that, the leaders for both sides practically said, kill em, dont hold back, fight for real now. And even with that said, even with the hype, it has become a sluggish pace.

Look at the fight with Soi-Fon, she is suppose to be the person for hand to hand combat. The person for speed, and yet they did not once emphasize their speed. I realize she is holding back and analyzing her opponent, but even with that, she seems no quicker than some run of the mill shinigami. People could have skipped this episode and it would not really do much.
